Altawana Drive Re-Opening to Motorists
July 19, 2024
Read it to me

**Medicine Hat, AB – **Altawana Drive will re-open to motorists on Saturday, July 20 by 7 a.m., as work shifts to Phase 2 of the 7 Street NW and Altawana Drive Deep Utility Replacement project.
The second phase of this project will continue after the weekend. Phase 2, which runs from Altawana Drive to Tweed Avenue NW, is set to begin Monday, July 22. Motorists in the area are asked to drive with caution and obey posted signage.
The 7 Street NW and Altawana Drive Deep Utility Replacement project is an extensive three-phase project that renews the infrastructure along 7 Street NW to ensure reliable water delivery and sanitary sewer service for years to come.
The project replaces aging cast iron water mains and clay sanitary mains with new PVC pipe. It also includes the installation of a steel casing underneath the existing stone retaining wall along Altawana Drive. The project zone stretches along 7 Street NW from Altawana Drive, up to and including McCutcheon Drive NW. Excavation has been over seven metres deep in places to access and replace infrastructure.
The City of Medicine Hat also used the Altawana Drive hill closure as an opportunity to maximize efficiency on other upgrades. With Altawana Drive traffic redirected to avoid the work area at the top of the hill, crews milled and repaved the hill while the road was closed, reducing the need for further disruption in the future.

The City of Medicine Hat would like to thank residents for their patience and understanding during these necessary upgrades.
